[chirp_users] question on configuring a frequency

Tue Jan 23 15:22:57 PST 2024

Yep, it is a local university that I am going to be working at and found
that their security had a freq, i thought I would listen in, listen only,
but it looked weird to me.
I was able to program a channel in my ht but only get some weird noise, I
was wondering if there was some translation required that needed those c12
and type R values to make it audible....if it is at all, maybe it is just
digital signal in general and I would not be able to get anything out of it.

Really just curious to see what it was as i had not come across those
values before.
good winds

So a quick google leads me to believe this is a law enforcement frequency,
so I'll ask what is the service you hope to monitor? Where did you get that
listing? If we know what you hope to monitor, we may find an alternate
source for the information. That C12 tone setting looks vendor-specific, it
likely 'maps' to either a standard DCS or CTCSS tone.

Unless it is a digital mode Color code, but that feels unlikely...
